people are not willing to accept the popularity of the watchtower and awake as these magazines belong to jw.
a listing site has declared the watchtower the most popular magazine in the world.. source: https://tingtopten.com/2020/01/top-10-most-popular-magazines-in-the-world/.
in comment section of this link people are abusing again jehovah's witnesses.
I think the Watchtower has a very searchable history tracing a time line of erroneous false predictions of end of world that begin with it's creation in the mid/late 19th century.
I think that the Watchtower changes it's theology based on who is in charge of it's unique form of faith, growth and influence.
What do you think Dydeonwl?
"what drives these doomsday 'prophets'.
many include wildly inaccurate readings of the book of revelation.
often these pandemic prophets end their predictions with sign-offs such as "if you don't have a bible, buy one!.
fame/status/money too?
let's add to the following list.
jws are mistaken when they believe the bible teaches:.
1. that their leaders somehow represent the faithful and wise servant.
I would say that no protesting church or organization has the authority to interpret the NT.
It is a catholic book written and compiled and preserved by the catholic church.
The catholic church told the world that it is the word of God. I think that the WTS would have to prove that the catholic church really did lose their authority with their book AND prove that they really did restore what , if anything was lost/corrupted by the catholic church, I have never seen any of this proof.

i know that it must seem silly to ask, but my brother and his family think that the big a will arrive before they die.
i tried to explain to my brother that everyone else who has ever lived in the past has died and only jesus has [physically] rose from the dead.. it is amazing that anyone could buy that line.
what crazy cult culture that could make people believe such nonsense?!.
Are JWs still taught/told that they will never die? That death will not touch God's sole channel of communication to the world?
those that discouraged working full time and/or getting some post secondary education and will now feel the pinch because of a tanking economy?.
I feel bad for anyone [everyone] who's unprepared. It sucks for everyone who relies on the economy for their livelihood. We all live in the world. And we all live together.

i thought this was an interesting site that discusses end of world predictions.

there are additional links at the end of this page.
well if an interviewed italian says so, it must be true
hebrews 13:8.
"jesus christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.".
the book of hebrews declare that jesus is god in this verse.
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
I dont remember that I ever heard something about this rather complicated passage in Hebrews in any talk in my witnesstime.
I'm not surprised. There is a similar passage in the OT describing God identically.
Sin is a concept fabricated by Bible writers for the sole purpose of controlling the masses
I totally disagree as sin is a real thing. It is a disordered attachment to the pleasure and security of ones self with the disregard to the pleasure and security of others...in a nutshell. Seeking your own pleasure without the concern for others is selfish, hence sinful.
hebrews 13:8.
"jesus christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.".
the book of hebrews declare that jesus is god in this verse.
How can it be said that 'He is the same yesterday, and today and forever'?
It IS not said. It IS written in the scriptures.
hebrews 13:8.
"jesus christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.".
the book of hebrews declare that jesus is god in this verse.
Why should it be a problem?
Because JWs teach that Jesus is actually the angel Michael. How could Jesus be Michael if he is the same today as yesterday. How could he have been created if he is the same today as yesterday?
